It is a strong monoprotic base. Monoprotic means it can accept a proton (and Bronsted-Lowry theory calls proton acceptors BASES) So yes it can accept 1 (mono) proton. Strong acids or bases dissociate completely in aqueous solutions. Therefore this strong monoprotic base would dissociate completely into component ions in solution (this case water) yielding Na+, OH- and H20 (and heat).

What is a monoprotic base?

A monoprotic base is a molecule that has one functional group that can accept a proton. NaOH for example is a (strong) monoprotic base because it can accept one proton. But amines can also be monoprotic bases.


What is the chemical equation for the neutralization of an acid by a base?

Neutralization of an acid by a base results in the formation of a salt and water. The general form of the reaction of a monoprotic acid with a base is HA + BOH ==> H2O + BAAn actual example would be hydrochloric acid + sodium hydroxide: HCl + NaOH ==> H2O + NaCl

15.00mL of 1.600M NaOH solution exactly neutralizes 20.00mL of an unknown monoprotic acid solution. Calculate the molarity of the acid solution. I got .686M... is this correct?

No, it's not correct. Liters*molarity = moles (0.015L)*(1.600moles/L) = 0.024 moles of NaOH One mole of NaOH would neutralize one mole of the MONOprotic acid, so: (0.024 moles of acid)/(0.020L) = 1.2M


Is NaOH plus H2O acid or base?

it is a base, because when NaOH is added to water, it gives off OH- ions.
